After recovering my HDD, I ended up with a lot of files with no extension. Many of them are .bin
files.
Is there any way to find out what file format they actually are?
Many of them have no information if I edit them with Notepad++ or Hex Editors.
Awesome tool. I just used it to figure out that an email attachment I was sent to decipher was a
.gz
file, not a.tar
file as its extension showed. Once I unzipped the.gz
file I actually got a.tar
file, so it was really originally a.tar.gz
file. I then extracted the.tar
file to find a SQL script with a.sql
extension and a JSON file with no extension. Except that the SQL script wasn't actually a SQL script, but another.gz
file containing the actual.sql
file. Ha ha. – Adam Goodwin – 2016-05-20T07:16:03.1731learned something better while trying to help. wonderful and thank you! – johnshen64 – 2012-06-11T14:37:44.563

For amateur users like me ( cause took me some time to figure out ) , there is a window version ( I mean visual one ) TrIDNet which require TrIDLib also , again Thanks man all of my files are healthy , also after searching i figured out how to use batch mode and replace all extensions to right ones , Thank you
